<p>Well, to be honest, there are other types of genjutsu that can easily be figured out as one, but still be unable to be countered with. Like Jiraya's and the Sound Ninja's genjutsu, which captyres the person, and even though they know they're in it, they are stuck. And just like that, there is the Sharingan Genjutsu which kind of treats the opponents into mental pain that is felt physically or something, like the Tsukuyomi and the genjutsu Sasuke did with C and Sakura. And then, there is the controlling one. Which kind of works with target being unconscious of whatever he or she is doing, like with Kurama, Manda, and many other examples.
